<p>[QUOTE=&quot;DoniKay, post: 369003, member: 14291&quot;]Hi, I have a project for my Latin class with a Licinius I coin, and i was wondering if anyone could explain to me what a couple of things mean on the coin. </p><p><br /></p><p>A. obverse side: IMP LINIVS AVG. What exactly does AVG stand for? Is this the abreviation for Aug. the month the coin was made in?</p><p>B. reverse side: IOVI CONSERVATORI AVGG. Again i&#039;m unsure what the AVGG exactly is meant to stand for.</p><p>C. reverse side: what does the SMK in ex mean? Is this the person who made the coin?</p><p>D. reverse side: The B on the right side of Jupitor, what does that stand for? Is this the edition? i&#039;ve noticed that there are many different kinds of Licinius I roman coins out there, so are each one mark by a different letter to show the edition of the maker and style of the specific coin? any help would be much appreciated. thanks so much.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
